lol, absolutly. :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D I remeber thinking the same thing when I had my first 90. The new TDCI I've now got aint much better. .................. But I love her :)

Thats the prob, it aint 12 or 14 M. B& QA sounds the ticket, but that will have to wait, nearest diy shop iks 14 miles away. Just hoped someone on here might know the answer so I can get the damn gauge ordered.:)

I can't help with the answer to your problem, however what I can tell you is that repalcing fuel caps is a waste of your money. I know because I went down the same path as you when it happened to me with my tdi 200 90. Unless you wan't to spend money sorting it (and I didn't) just don't fill...

Hi, I'm trying to fit an oil temp gauge to my 2008 defender. The sensor is going to plug into an adaptor that in turn bolts into the sump. Simples me thinks ........ oh no. Whilst on the phone to the gauge supplier, he asks me what is the thread size on the TDCI engine for the adapter? His...

Thanks for the answer, but what you state above was the bit that worried me to a point in the first place. IE Slippery road conditions or not, when I lock diff, you would never know it was locked when turning sharply. There is no juddering at all and thats what worried me because I thought...

Ok, .......... does that mean then that a slitty 4x4 would hold traction longer than a defender when pulling on ice etc?

Hmmmmm, I think I do now, just did a search. Yeah I know I'm a dumb f**k. But I aint much of a lateral thinker. I thought locking diff meant locking all 4 wheels together. ie so they couldn't turn individually. No wonder i can go around corners easily with diff locked . What I can't...

Hi all, Ok, maybe i'm a retard but can someone please explain the following to me: I know that a defender is constant 4wd, i also know that in normal driving that one wheel will start to spin (ie in snow) first before the others, and/or to help day to day driving. Now this is where I...

I wonder how he's getting on with it, I love my 110 but blimey I have had some problems with it. Latest thing, where the rear offside mudflap bolts to the body work, the aluminium bodywork split open where it bolts and now I have a hanging mudflap which can't be bolted back because theres a...

Max towing weight for a landy 3.5 tonnes - 4 tonne with coupled brakes. How much can you tow legally? Difficult question to answer because the rules are different between 'for work use' or 'private' Basically if you are towing for yourself. Your Maximum gross weigh (MGW) can be up to...

I think also that first gear is way to low, however I do alot of heavy trailering, and then it comes into its own MPG? 25-26 to the gallon, (taking it reasonably easy) about 18-20 if towing. I expected better to be honest, it seems the less crap they kick out of modern emission engines these...

Same problem, the gearbox in my 57 plate defender was replaced at 9500 miles in October, it had become difficult to change up from 1st to second. They drained the oil out, and out with the oil came brass shavings. LR told the dealer they would be sending a part for the 2nd syncro then changed...

Finally got your message, cheers, ill be in touch

errm nope. Sorry. One last try?

Thanks but i didnt get it, it was kicked off my server, can you send it again? the problem is now sorted.

sure, when in oct and where?

Nope, work pays, but they look at the bigger picture, its a commercial, it tax deductable and thirdly (and the most important if you think about it) its worth purchasing rather than leasing as it will be worth far more than most other commercials after 5 years. IE Good on the asset sheet. Plus...

Buy the new one, I have a 2008 110 Puma engine and its the best, LR quality control is no better than its ever been but don't listen to the crap about dodgy new engine etc etc. Its a remapped transit engine, built by ford, simple as that. One of the largest by numbers manufactured engines in the...

Yeah he may have mean't a operators licence, the problem is he's on holiday until the 10th August in S Africa and I can't reach him to be sure. Passed my test in 86 so not restricted by the 97 laws in that relation on towing normal loads

Hmmmmm, not nessarily, mine turned red, i changed the airfilter and low and behold the next day the gizmo had turned red again. The guy at the Landie garage said ignore it, they all do that after alota years. Just replace the filter every 12 months So, If it aint been replaced in the last 12...
